Lazysodium is a complete Android implementation of the Libsodium library that provides developers with a smooth and effortless cryptography experience.
We created Lazysodium because we really wanted a solid Libsodium compatible Java/Android library that would just work without fuss. We were exasperated and annoyed with current Libsodium implementations as some of them were just poorly maintained and poorly architected.
You can find more info here.
This library is fully compatible with Kotlin powered Android projects.
You can find an up-to-date feature list here.
This is by no means a comprehensive introduction to Lazysodium. Please view the official documentation for a more comprehensive guide.
Whatever build tool you're using the general gist is to add the mavenCentral()
repository and then add the Lazysodium dependency.
More detailed instructions here.
The following example is for users of the build tool Gradle:
// Top level build file
repositories {
// Add this to the end of any existing repositories
mavenCentral()
}
// Project level dependencies section
dependencies {
implementation "com.goterl:lazysodium-android:VERSION_NUMBER@aar"
implementation "net.java.dev.jna:jna:5.8.0@aar"
}

We also have a Java implementation available at Lazysodium for Java. It has the same API as this library so you can share code easily!
